But they are $231 each and only 5 of them available. FPGAs have a steep learning curve.
I found a $10 part that might work for a lot of different use cases. ...ebay.com/itm/Altera-CPLD-FPGA... <https://www.ebay.com/itm/Altera-CPLD-FPGA-Programmer-USB-Blaster-compatible-LC-MAXII-EPM240-Dev-Board/182584552734?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&var=485152716078&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649> One of these can replace a large PCB filled with hardware logic chips. I have no firm plans to use this in any project but I do think I can use it to replace an entire parts cabinet of 74LS00 chips. You can program it with Verilog or VHDL but Altera's software has a mode where you can drop logic gates on a canvas graphically. This mode bypasses the long learning curve associated with Verilog or VHDL. It works very much like placing 7400 serve chips on a solderless bread board. Or this is what I think The boards are still in transit from China On Fri, Apr 20, 2018 at 9:06 PM, jeremy youngs <[email protected]> wrote: > This looks promising, programs in Python.
